Resumo: This paper investigates, in the light of the same theoretical reference, two distinct objects: a solidarity economy enterprise and a neighborhood association located in Porto Alegre. Such objects have in common the characteristic of consisting of individuals in situation of relative poverty. From its specificities, the aim is to analyze how they access resources through their social relations. In both cases there were realized interviews and observations. The investigation of the cooperative unveiled that the inequality in the social capital distribution amongst its members halts the institution of more symmetric relations. Simultaneously, it constitutes a factor which assures its economic success. Studying the association, it was observed the conformation of a relational network restricted to individuals of inferior position in the social hierarchy. Besides possessing little external links, such links are mostly with agents in similar social position. These factors explain their difficulty in accessing resources and create demands.

Este trabalho investiga, sob o mesmo referencial teórico, dois objetos distintos: um empreendimento de economia solidária e uma associação de moradores, localizados em Porto Alegre. Tais objetos têm em comum a característica de serem constituídos por indivíduos em situação de relativa pobreza. A partir das suas especificidades, o intuito é analisar como acessam recursos através de suas relações sociais. Nos dois casos foram realizadas entrevistas e observações. A investigação da cooperativa revelou que a desigualdade na distribuição de capital social entre seus integrantes dificulta a instituição de relações mais simétricas. Ao mesmo tempo, constitui um fator que garante seu êxito econômico. No estudo da associação, observou-se a conformação de uma rede relacional restrita a indivíduos em posição inferior na hierarquia social. Além de possuir poucos vínculos externos, esses são na sua maioria com agentes em semelhante posição social. Tais fatores explicam as suas dificuldades em acessar recursos e construir demandas.Faculdades ESTCAPES - BrazilCAPESOliveira, Gerson de LimaZanata Jr., Rui2010-12-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.est.edu.br/index.php/nepp/article/view/6010.22351/nepp.v23i0.60Protestantismo em Revista; v. 23 (2010): Dossiê Economia Solidária; 21-291678-64081678-640810.22351/nepp.v23i0reponame:Protestantismo em Revistainstname:Faculdades ESTinstacron:ESTporhttp://periodicos.est.edu.br/index.php/nepp/article/view/60/106info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2010-12-28T13:57:34Zoai:www.est.edu.br/periodicos:article/60Revistahttp://periodicos.est.edu.br/index.php/nepphttp://periodicos.est.edu.br/index.php/nepp/oai||obobsin@est.edu.br|| reblin@est.edu.br1678-64081678-6408opendoar:2010-12-28T13:57:34Protestantismo em Revista - Faculdades ESTfalse
